Grace C. Gunderman, age 91, formerly of Pitcairn, PA, passed away peacefully on Friday, April 4, 2025 at Golden Heights Personal Care Home. Grace was the loving mother of Kathryn L. Soles and the late Kelly L. Wagle; beloved grandmother of Maryl, Ian, and Trista; dear great-grandmother of Eleanor and Vera; and cherished sister of Elizabeth. Grace was preceded in death by her parents, Edward and Lavina Clinton. Toward the end of her life, she was fortunate to have the support of her dedicated son-in-law, Howard Wagle, and the DAO Memorial Foundation. Grace was a graduate of Carnegie Mellon University and worked as an English teacher at Gateway High School for many years. She was the favorite of many students and developed a variety of courses to pique their interest. At the end of her life, Grace enjoyed the company of her two devoted dogs. She also continued to contribute to the community by knitting dozens of scarves to donate to local churches and schools.

I loved Mrs Gunderman and always appreciated her true passion for teaching. So much so that I became a teacher. I´ve thought of her often and I hope her family knows that she really made a difference in many, many, many of her student´s lives.

To Grace´s family,
I´m very sorry for your loss.
My mother, Clare Thompson, babysat for Grace when the girls were young.
I was in high school at the time, so I would ride to school with her when she dropped off the girls.
She was a teacher and a friend. She helped me in many ways, academically, and in life in general.
When I got my learner´s permit, she would let me drive her car to school in the morning.
She even took me to take my driver´s test, in her car, when I was ready.
She was a kind and gracious person.
Grace was a mentor and a strong, positive influence in my life.
I am grateful for her care and support.
May she rest in peace.
